[quote=Anonymous]Mom of young adults here. You must differentiate your friends from your children's friends. You don't have to be close friends with your children's friend's parents. These relationships are temporary and about proximity only. Like having neighbors. Just because you live next door to someone doesn't mean you have to be their bestie or hang with the neighborhood. It's okay not to emotionally invest in these parents and try to seek their favor. It's about your kid having friendships to learn social skills and life lessons, not about you. Emotionally divest yourself from these moms. As I say, they are temporary fixtures in your life so treat them as such.[/quote]
